yea Crisis is great if you have the money for a 40$ game and a super computer.
I rather not spend my money on a half assed game(because it has just as many bugs as sauerbraten).

Sauerbraten has many bugs? I don't notice any, and I've run it on Windows and Linux.

Thanks :)
I tried installing the spring version(the latest version I saw) then the two updates, but when I start it it gives me the message, \\\"Could not find core textures\\\"

http://sauerbraten.org/docs/config.html#running_sauerbraten

Be sure that you run the .bat file from the root directory, with the .exe in the /bin directory. Otherwise the exe won't be able to find all the other files it needs to run. To use a simle metaphor, it has got directions that say "drive up a directory, then turn left at /data street, and look for the house named 'crosshair.png'."

To answer a question before it gets asked: yes, you can rename the exe to whatever you want, so long as the batch file has the right name in it. If you're looking to make an addon mod or something, that's actually recommended.

#10427: Is there any way to make a map outside the game?

by DevelopII on 04/28/2008 01:03

Is there any way to make a map outside the game like Quake III?

Don't think so. You can export .obj files with /writeobj, however.

I meant, like Radiant can export .map files, is there a program that can create maps for the cube 2 engine, even if there not modifiable in game?

If he had said "Is there any way to make a map outside the *level*", I would have thought the same as you. and @10488, not to my knowledge.

No. The whole point is that it's ingame, and as close to realtime as is possible for a current-gen quality game.

I personally think it would be cool to have mapmodels be able to act as geometry, allowing you to make more complex maps.

#10434: Re: ..

by MovingTarget on 04/28/2008 04:16, refers to #10433

If you wanna make more complex maps, download CVS. I personally don't know what the problem with downloading it is around here; when I did it, I had no prior experience at all, and didn't look at any tutorials.

by SheeEttin on 04/28/2008 05:20, refers to #10431

I see your point now. Poor reading on my part. :P

On models as geometry, it's certainly possible... the model collision is currently just a box (or is it a cylinder?).
However, you could conceivable make a model non-clipping, and put some clip or geometry inside it to make it collide the way you want. I guess that'd work pretty well, actually.

#10436: Re: Is there any way to make a map outside the game?

by tentus_ on 04/28/2008 06:03, refers to #10435

Indeed. I was making some biplane models for my most recent map and decided to make the fuselage clipped by the model bounding box, but the wings were clipped by creative application of the clip material. It can be a bit painstaking to do properly (especially if you decide to move the model), but it works pretty well.

On a different note, if anyone wants a really hideous biplane md2, I've got one for you. :D

#10438: Feature or Bug ?

by e=mc^2 on 04/28/2008 20:15

It is possible to swim up waterfalls for example in the fanatic_caves map in Asassin edition and CVS.

Furthermore it is possible to swim up the lavafall in the hog2 map in CVS.

Is that supposed to be (physics violated)?
